but when i asked a computer science student what he knew about social media, he was stumped. are you on facebook? after a conversation with the minder, it was clear the computer science student had never heard of facebook. perhaps most revealing of all was this train trip we took through the countryside. many north koreans outside pyongyang are starving. it's easy to see why. the fields looked lifeless. north korea is a secretive and closed society. free thinking isn't encouraged here. but maybe north korea is opening up, or maybe it just wants the world to understand it a little better. one of the most distinct memories i have from this trip is a 16-year-old school girl, high school student, and she was in a shop buying a pair of glasses. there are very shoe shops there and i asked her how she starts her day. we've all done chores in school. this girl starts her school day, every day, by polishing a portrait of the country's founder and then sitting down in homage to the leader and that's the way it works in north korea. they call it the personality that is pervasive. >> lit
